You are purchasing high quality sheet music PDF files suitable for printing or viewing on digital devices.This piece was written in 1983 for the three Bassoonists of the Natal Philharmonic Orchestra at that time - Judith Wood, Valentine Herlund and Derek Vaughan-Heapy. It was a piece written for their school visits. The second movement has a cadenza for each player. I gave them each a hint of a well known melody of their own respective countries - Bsn. 1 'Waltzing Matilda' - Bsn. 2 'Finlandia' and Bsn. 3 'Early one morning'. Unfortunately, I got Valentine's nationality wrong who was not from Finland but was actually from Rumania! Thank goodness I didn't know that for I know no Rumanian folksongs.
